Please. Keep your opinions on my reasoning to yourself. The Boot Camp Sgts were certianly over the top, and perhaps even guilty of a lesser offense. It does not change the fact that the circumstances did not equate to a manslaughter charge.

Looks like they were attempting to render assistance. I saw nothing to indicate they were over the top. Clearly wrongfully charged.

Oh Please Quit being such a drama queen.
The officers were restraining him because he was in convulsions.
The officers didn't know what WE all know now. The video is hard to watch because WE know that the kid was in fact dying.
